I had this problem also. I added:
Dos charset = 850
Unix charset = ISO8859-1
To my smb.conf and it cleared it up.

| Hi,
|
| I'm using samba 3.0.4, with XP clients and server-side-profiles.
| Sometimes, my users save bookmarks with strange characters in them.
| These files are saved flawlessly on the server, but Windows is unable to
| copy them back to the local profile, and so the user can not log in.
|
| I'm using a iso8859-15 charset.
|
| I hope this is not a common question, I looked in the archive but I had
| been unable to find a similar one.
|
| One example for a strange characters is in the title of the home page of
| the US Department of State (http://www.state.gov/), in firebird, it is
| shown as \2013, on the linux server, is is shown as `^S'.
|
| Is there any way I could modify change these characters to spaces, or
| any other solution?
|
| LLAP, Martin
